I am sorry to hear that. I think all things happen for a reason. Maybe someone way better is in your future. You should start by doing all the things you ever put on hold, while you were married. Get out whenever you get time, so you can meet new people. Take it from there and have fun. Wow. I am sorry to hear that. I think all things happen for a reason.

I went back after being married for 18 yrs. It felt like I would be alone and never meet anyone. Being alone can be scary after a long relationship. Both Match.com and Cupid.com were helpful though you have to move slowly as there are some definite crackpots out there. Secondly there are a lot of people out there in the same boat. But at the same time if you see someone just start talking and revisit the old social skills. My first hello to a woman turned out she was seeing someone. At the same time she was very flattered that I asked. It helped set my mind that it was not impossible. I met and am marrying the woman I met on Match.com this month. Good luck Lastly for a little while don't take anything personnally just think of it as a bit of a game. You will be able to tolerate it all alittle easier. Welcome back to the dating world.
